What makes you you?
The Greystone kids thought they knew. Chess has always been the
protector over his younger siblings, Emma loves math, and Finn does what
Finn does best--acting silly and being adored. They've been a happy
family, just the three of them and their mom.
But everything changes when reports of three kidnapped children reach
the Greystone kids, and they're shocked by the startling similarities
between themselves and these complete strangers. The other kids share
their same first and middle names. They're the same ages. They even have
identical birthdays. Who, exactly, are these strangers?
Before Chess, Emma, and Finn can question their mom about it, she takes
off on a sudden work trip and leaves them in the care of Ms. Morales and
her daughter, Natalie. But puzzling clues left behind lead to complex
codes, hidden rooms, and a dangerous secret that will turn their world
upside down.
Praise for The Strangers:
"A secret-stacked, thrilling series opener about perception, personal
memories, and the idiosyncrasies that form individual identities."
